    AVOID! Cannot recommend going here. We had an extremely frustrating and disappointing experience with this collision repair center. We found the work to be shockingly poor with several defects. This shop was recommended by Jim Falk Lexus of Beverly Hills. We met Peter who was a nice enough guy to inspect the car and show us the shop in Van Nuys and we talked to and received an estimate of repairs from the owner Jerry. They assured us that they work on Lexus vehicles and would do an excellent job. They offered to pick up and drop the car at Jim Falk Lexus. The paperwork for the estimate was comprehensive and detailed listing all of the work to be performed. Apparently, they performed the work in about two days and it showed. When we received the vehicle back we were shocked at the poor quality and workmanship. There were multiple runs of paint that had dripped down the doors and dried. Trim pieces were reused and scratched. The "new" body and paint work showed multiple pits/holes and defects in the work. This was very disappointing for work being performed on a new car when were assured this repair facility was experienced working on Lexus vehicles and would make the repairs look like it was new prior to the damage. We contacted the owner, Jerry, but were rushed off the phone without rectifying the issue and without receiving any voicemail or returned message follow up. Why would you return a vehicle to a customer in that poor of condition? We looked on www.lexuscollisioncenter.com and were surprised to learn this shop is not even a Lexus authorized repair center! Their work on our car was inspected by several collision centers who quickly identified the defects in their incorrect and substandard work and provided new estimates. We had to take the vehicle to a new collision centers to completely redo the job and were much easier to work with. We would not ever do business with Classic Auto Repair in Van Nuys and they are not eligible to work on any of our Lexus vehicles.

A more complicated problem with my car + an especially great experience at this shop left me wanting to leave a review! I started having some very common water pump and vacuum system problems with my beloved 718 Cayman S a few weeks ago - these are well documented issues with the car, but can be very difficult to diagnose and truly fix. When I first started having problems, I decided to go to another shop in the area to get a diagnosis to figure out what was going on. That shop gave me a lot of stress and very little confidence that we would get the issues sorted any time soon, so I decided to come here and met with Amir. Again, the vacuum issues on a 718 especially can be a bit complicated to diagnose. From the moment I started working through these issues with Amir, he was very good on communication, transparency, and did not in any way run up a bill of other random things just to try to get more money. He sent me photos every step of the way of what was being done to my car, communicated on parts coming in, etc - I felt very comfortable having my car there. When Porsche took longer than they had promised us to get a part in, Amir made the wait much easier by helping me out with a rental. The car was driving beautifully after I picked it up, but I ended up with a fault code again and I had to come back in - I don't fault Amir/the shop for this at all, 718 vacuum issues can be very complicated and oftentimes there is no "issue" left other than a ghost code. The experience of coming back here to diagnose why this code came back actually solidified my confidence in this shop - they were once again extremely transparent and very considerate in making my second visit quick and painless. My car is in phenomenal shape, and I saved a good amount of money (and headache) compared to what I was quoted at another spot down the street. Thank you Amir!

I went in for transmission fluid change earlier in February in my Toyota Camry 2018. I bought OEM Toyota transmission fluid and asked Joe to help do drain and fill.The drain and fill was completed. After that there was a rough driving issues started. I went back to show my car to joe and he drove the car he told me he don't see any issues. I wanted him to check transmission fluid port on if there is low transmission fluid he didn't agree and told me I might be overthinking. I went to different mechanic in April and he checked. I paid $100 to reopen the port for transmission fluid and what we saw was no fluid came out from the primary port. He added 0.5 quarters left. The issues I have had for rough idle and need to have higher RPM on slope went away completely.According to him you have to keep the car running when you drain the fluid and you need to have it at the right temperature he said the drain and fill wasn't done correctly that's why there was still room for fluid. The viscosity of the fluid makes a difference in how much you can fill and drain. He double checked for leakage and there were no leaks either. When I went to joe and asked about don't you have to keep car warm to see if temperature is right? He said you only do it when there is a leak. I don't think Joe knew enough about mechanics of New car. I wasn't overthinking when I went to ask Joe for help and asked to recheck the transmission fluid. I paid $260 for labor only( $160 to Joe and $100 to another mechanic) for same job. It's really absurd. Overall this could have damaged my transmission. I think for future the customer advise should be taken seriously. I know my car well so I know when it's not acting good. I have been driving it from 10 years.
